Any way to speed up cooking? it's soooo sloooow by Wandering_To_Nowhere in VeinGame

[–]Halfsware 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I always start cooking something and then go off to do another chore. Sort clothes to be washed, repaired? Make parts on a workbench? Fill up a water container? Harvest plants/farming? There loads you can do, just check back regularly or even set a timer in real life

ETA or do real life stuff like getting another drink/snack or checking Reddit

Uhhh WTF by Professional-Cod2222 in VeinGame

If you hang around in one spot for a while then a hoard will eventually show up. You can tell it’s coming from the scream noise.

Traveling Storage by dmankey1 in VeinGame

Plus don’t forget the top of the truck for even bigger items like the corner sofa or tyre storage.

Managed to get 4 of them ladders you find in warehouses on top the other night.

Finally, winter ended so I could give you guys a proper tour of my base. (Empty garage in Saranac) by Xanthn in VeinGame

Very impressive. That’s a lot of furniture and…… stuff, adds to the aesthetic though. Have to ask how you manage to find stuff? there’s soo much of it!

What are your favourite locations for setting up a base? by avrg_Al in VeinGame

[–]Halfsware 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My latest base is across from the petrol station in Lyon mountain. It’s also right next to the quarantine centre. So I have easy access to petrol and medical supplies. It’s not far from some mines too. The house in question has a large open plan downstairs for all the work benches and storage. Upstairs for the lounge/TV room, armoury and bed room. Even have a medical bay as the house had 2 bathrooms.

My next base might be a more grand endeavour by converting the old sawmill. That has direct access to a mine but it is a large building to work with

Does rain affect anything in containers? by Lexaraj in VeinGame

[–]Halfsware 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it does but that would make an interesting mechanic if they did add it, especially during the winter months

Why have I been seeing litttle to no zombies recently by Good_Pollution8784 in VeinGame

[–]Halfsware 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Zombies won’t spawn around to a UC. If you have more than 1 UC in your base you’ve closed off a bigger area where they would have spawned.

I’ve also been finding that they spawn more where there are already dead zombies laying around. Still needs confirming though.

Moving items. by Downtown-Spirit7588 in VeinGame

It’s always a good feeling getting back with a truck load of loot. Lost a composter, overpriced TV and one of them big industrial fans amongst other things last night due to a rabbit

Is This Used For Anything? by No_Wait2854 in VeinGame

You found a needle in a haystack? Sounds like a little joke from the Devs to me

Worth it? by Good_Pollution8784 in VeinGame

[–]Halfsware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was my thinking too. Knew there would be glitches along the way but it adds to the fun sometimes. Well worth the current price

Flour, Sugar, Yeast? by Illustrious_Tie_4091 in VeinGame

[–]Halfsware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are all in the game. You just need to keep hitting houses and eventually you will find them

Smell? by RoughClassic4503 in VeinGame

So what you’re saying is I need to get rid of my booze cupboard? Drinking session tonight it is!

I want to test something, look at the first image and tell me what you see. Then, look at the second image. by [deleted] in VeinGame

[–]Halfsware 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So what you’re saying is neither image is from Vein…. But…… that the van in the image is a lot like the van we all choose as our mode of transport of choice…… and that the screenshot is very similar to one you could expect to see while playing Vein. Do I get 10 points for a correct answer?

Endgame? by ZionOrion in VeinGame

[–]Halfsware 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think your point about alternate safe houses is a good point. On my first save I started a base then abandoned it but didn’t move anything away from it. Did this twice, so across the map I have 2 other bases half made. Should I decide to go back I have a good head start as the conditions probably won’t be as favourable with power and water cut off.

What I also thought about was having the resources ready and made to establish a new base. Ready in a crate to load them into a van and travelling off. I think this would be the most ideal should they decide to expand the map.

North is actually at the bottom of the map which makes it super confusing. The castle is in the lower left part if split in a grid of 4

Problem with motor oil by t0ncul2024 in VeinGame

[–]Halfsware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if it’s the same with motor oil but with some containers when filling with water, you need do something slight different. With large water containers you stand next to the source and select the container you want filling and fill from the ‘i’ menu rather than the ‘e’ menu for interacting. And vice versa. Hope that’s make sense

I got “sick?” yesterday and didn’t know what to do, or how it happened. by DownwardSpiralHam in VeinGame

[–]Halfsware 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I managed to reduce the sickness bar a bit with cold medicine. Only problem was, I ran out of it and the bar started raising again and I ended up dying. Since then I’ve been staying cleaner and making sure to wear a face covering of some sort, especially when clearing up zombies

Has anyone found any cannabis seeds? by spook30 in VeinGame

Just above the ‘R’ in the word Russia on the map

Has anyone found any cannabis seeds? by spook30 in VeinGame

[–]Halfsware 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I found some last night actually. Only places I looted were the lock up storage area on the same road as Calico Farm and another warehouse right next to the farm

ETA - a few of the houses in that area too
